Today P1-4 buddied up with Leswalt’s Primary 1-3 class for a trip to The Planetarium in Kircudbright, as part of their science learning this term! \ud83d\udc7d\ud83c\udf0d When they arrived, they were greeted by the Planetraium staff, who were just as excited about space as us! They then enjoyed an interactive live show inside the\u00a0 dark dome theatre- a dark room with a huge curved ceiling! When the lights dimmed, they were looking up the planets, moon and stars! \u2b50\ud83d\udcfd<\/div>\n

Afterwards, they got\u00a0 a feeling of what it would be like as an astronaut in space as they had a wee look around the exhibits – looking at planet models, meteorites and they even got to try a virtual reality headset they took them on a journey through the solar system. \ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83d\ude80\ud83d\udc69\u200d\ud83d\ude80\ud83d\udd2d<\/div>\n

A huge thank you to the Planetarium staff for such a fantastic trip!<\/div>\n
